Hope things are going well with you! I'd like to ask you very quick on this, as I recalled in your presentation at the ECCO meeting that you were able to run pkg/flt with pkg/exch2. I have looked now into the latest code for pkg/flt and see that you have implemented an if-def block DEVEL_FLT_EXCH2 that will allow for pkg/exch2. I wanted to ask if you have an example of the code and input+namelist dir for an llc90 set up that could help me understand more how you can set the global initial_flt_position file (instead of the tile-dependent pickups) as well as what run-time flags you might need to get exch2 to work within flt?<br class=""><br class="">Many thanks in advance,<br class="">An<br class=""></blockquote><br class=""><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class="">On Sep 13, 2019, at 12:57, Patrick Heimbach <<a href="mailto:heimbach@mit.edu" class="">heimbach@mit.edu</a>> wrote:<br class=""><br class="">Hi Spencer,<br class=""><br class="">I need to double check, but think that An Nguyen has been making some good progress on this (I keep forgetting to double-check with her).
